Are you expecting for these areas to open up before the end of October? I drove by Polique Canyon Road last weekend and it had barricades saying it was still closed due to the USFS order. We were hoping to camp up that way soon but with those orders it was kiboshed.

The updated order says only through 9/30, so hopefully that's all it lasts...

We're confident that things should be settled down by then.. Fortunately the property is Private so we just need the roads to be open.

the biggest issue has been fires that aren't event in the area.. the Creek fire near Fresno has soaked up so many resources that the national forest have been closed due to lack of staff to protect them.
Exactly. The Santiago range has been closed with the order and has had no fire danger this year yet, but as you said, resources are zapped fighting the big ones already, especially the Bobcat fire just north of LA, that's consumed so much of the LA national forest already.

yeah.. I'm cool with Santiago being closed... It's right behind my house in Corona and I don't want to catch on fire lol.

I'm on the other side, right in Trabuco Canyon, just across Santiago Canyon from the mountain itself, so I feel you there. I miss getting off the paved road though. Ultimately I'd like to get up Santiago coming from your side instead of mine. But it's closeddddd.

Giving me nostalgia. Lived 37 years in Apple Valley before moving to GA. 2 years ago. Octoberfest in Big Bear and Christmas at Lake Arrowhead. Loved sitting in shorts and sandals looking at the snow on the mountain. Bring warm clothes and have fun!
